ChrissieDee

2:34 am

jillibus

good luck all! *poof*

2:34 am

Douglas

On further review, I misspelled Punxsutawney, but what I meant to say is that Wiarton is near the tip of a peninsula of land, so people don't usually end up in Wiarton unless they're going to Wiarton. Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, on the other hand, is only about 25 km off of Interstate 80

2:35 am

Just1Mar

not really chriss.....my name is Marianne ergo Just1Mar....they broke the mold after they made me

2:36 am

3:20 am

Andree

anyhow the main thing is i have a driver to start tuesday, my biggest nightmare was if i could not get another before present one leaves

3:22 am

loredana

truck drivers over here are non existent they have all left driving to work in the mines to get drivers to drive east/west we had to pay them an arm and a leg!!! we even advertised overseas

3:24 am

Andree

thank goodness it didn't come to that lore, but i was very suprised at the lack of interest in the job

3:24 am

mrpresident

far out lore! that is stupid!

3:26 am

Andree

have had i driver 18 years and the other 15 years so was out of the loop and got a shock at how hard it was to find one

3:26 am

loredana

they make more money in the mines and driving is a fairly stressful job mrp especially oversize which is what we did prime mover with over 100 tonnes on its back crossing australia and having to contend with car drivers

3:26 am

mrpresident

and now andree, keeping his happy will be the key

3:28 am

loredana

any ways enough about that Andree has her driver and we will send good vibes across the nullaboor so that this driver will work out just fine and andree will remember to enjoy life and not stress so much

3:28 am

Andree

i am pretty easy to work for mrp otherwise i would not keep them so long, the key is i think is he going to be the right person for the job, tony the one who is leaving is so loved by all our customers

3:29 am

loredana

mrp must remember to take lots of rest too so she does not go back to that place where they have horrible food hugs for mrp!!

3:29 am

Andree

how is the new job mrp

3:30 am

loredana

mrp you are working you just got out of hospital !!!

3:31 am

Andree

"Notes: ~ Introduced by Ezio Pinza in the Stage Musical "South Pacific". Pinza's single, from the cast album, was a million-seller as was Perry's recording for RCA Victor. Other best-sellers were recorded by Jo Stafford for Capitol, Frank Sinatra for Columbia, and Bing Crosby for Decca. In the 1958 Hollywood Musical it was sung by Giorgio Tozzi, dubbing for Rossano Brazzi and Mitzi Gaynor. There were later popular recordings by Jay and the Americans in 1965 for United Artists and Jane Olivor for Columbia in 1977."

ardilla

carleekat

WOOHOO..am finished the re's...wow... get the mensa application out for me...I totally ROCK

6:35 am

Jandy

Oooh.... tempting to make a deliberate mistake....

6:35 am

Jandy

Go carlee!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:35 am

donnab3012

6:35 am

ardilla

woot carlee

6:35 am

Merk

Hey, they picked my video for today ... dedicated to any of you are Grandma's seeing your grandkids on this beautiful Easter Sunday.

6:35 am

ardilla

go jandy go

6:36 am

carleekat

i know... I can't help it... I am just..so...enlightened today **stuffing face full of laura secord cream egg****

6:36 am

Jandy

You can stay till you can't eat any more chocolate, donna! That could be while, if you're like me!

6:36 am

Merk

Oops, forgot the 'who' in that sentence. Well I got up early to do this before the kids woke up. They are ready for me to make them Grandma's special oatmeal.

6:37 am

carleekat

( I have chocolate almond coffee for the occasion???)

6:37 am

Jandy

Oh yum... cream eggs... my failing and I didn't get one this year. Don't know if I should be relieved or disappointed...

6:37 am

carleekat

grandma's special oatmeal?

6:37 am

carleekat

( go buy on e on sale tomorrow jandy....or 2..or 3....)

6:37 am

Merk

Can't have any other breakfast when they are with Grandma.

6:38 am

Jandy

Will be fascinated to hear how you make oatmeal that appealing, merk!

6:38 am

Jandy

I was just thinking that, carlee... it would be saving money...

6:38 am

Merk

I mash a banana before I put in the oats and milk and nuke it. Then I throw on some berries when I serve it.

6:38 am

carleekat

ok..how does grandma make grandma's special oatmeal... I've NEVER made oatmeal...since I m ade once and tasted like wallpaper paste

6:38 am

Jandy

Mmmm... fruity oatmeal....

6:39 am

carleekat

other then....instant stuff

6:40 am

Merk

My oatmeal is delicious ... my standby. I have to watch my sugar intake and when I make it this way, it does not need salt or sugar. Any berries work. Oh, and after I mash the banana, I add a tbsp of lemon juice, stir that together, throw on the oats and milk, nuke it for 2 and a half minutes. Old fashioned oats work best.

6:40 am

Angelsong

morning, all. Happy Easter...

6:40 am

ardilla

hi angel

6:40 am

Merk

And on that note, I am going to brew my coffee and cook my oats. Have a wonderful day everyone.

6:40 am

kje

get the good stuff carlee - I love the rish oatmeal that takes 30 -35 minutes to cook - chewy and nutty deliciousness

6:40 am

Merk

<oiif>

6:41 am

Jandy

Bye Merk... when it gets cool enough here will try that!

6:41 am

carleekat

but I haven't got a clue how to m ake it...

6:41 am

kje

that is irsh oatmeal, btw

6:41 am

carleekat

I grew up on cream of wheat..i don't even KNOW what good oatmeal tastes like

6:42 am

carleekat

( i can get steel cut oats here )

6:42 am

ardilla

bye merk

6:42 am

kje

I hated cream of wheat growing up - it gets that skin on top if you don't get to the table right away!

6:43 am

kje

ummm steel cut oats with dried fruit and nuts thrown in the last few minutes of cooking

6:43 am

carleekat

love it..cooked with milk.. and brown sugar sprinkled on top... that my " i'm not feeling good" curl up on cold evening dinner...time to cocoon food

6:43 am

kje

brb - gonna go put some oats on - you guys got me hungry

6:44 am

carleekat

but HOW u make it??????

6:44 am

Jandy

Not a fan of the cream of wheat either... never had it till we lived in the US for a while... too much like hot glue...

6:45 am

kje

I cook steel cut oats (1/4 cup oats, 1 cup water) at a simmer for 30 minutes or until most of water is absorbed... then I stir in dried fruit and nut mixture - whatever you like and a little brown sugar and eat!

6:45 am

carleekat

no salt..sugar...vanilla?

6:46 am

kje

I don't like the instant oat stuff - too gluey

6:46 am

carleekat

just..oats and water????

6:46 am

kje

no salt - a little brown sugar - vanilla could be nice

6:46 am

carleekat

oats themselves by themself taste like glue

6:47 am

carleekat

i'll have to get brave....and try one day..it just seemsso unappealing

6:47 am

kje

I put fruit and nuts in carlee - but yes, I cook them in just water - I add the rest at the end

6:48 am

carleekat

and this tastes....good?

6:48 am

kje

it is deliciousness

6:49 am

pinkhatlil

6:50 am

kje

I don't usually eat chocolate for breakfast carlee - not usually anyway : )

6:51 am

carleekat

( I don't "do" breakfast.... coffee is breakfast.. )

6:51 am

Jandy

Me neither kje, but I made an exception today!

6:51 am

carleekat

but I could certainly eat cheesecake for breakfast everyday

6:51 am

Jandy

Hello young pink.... how the heck are you?

6:51 am

7:02 am

carleekat

what are grits....i've never known

7:03 am

kje

yum carlee - I want that when I come too : )

7:03 am

kje

grits are ground dried hominy

7:03 am

Jandy

You don't want to, carlee... if you won't eat oatmeal, you'll never need to know about grits... SHUDDER....

7:03 am

kje

think kinda like polenta

7:03 am

carleekat

( actually I use it as toppingon good vanilla ice cream..instead of hot fudge)

7:03 am

Jandy

They're made from hominy, which I guess is a grain...

9:22 am

Scrabbler

Hey, red, are you like me and always trying to enter "crit"?

9:22 am

angelinaxox

k, i'm in south jersey about a half hour from phila

9:23 am

hurshy

i am, and i only watch medical shows

9:23 am

sadie52

ohhhh ok cool

9:23 am

redturtlehead

every time...

9:24 am

Scrabbler

Hi Hurshy. "crit" is short for hematocrit which is approx 3 x the hemoglobin which is a measure of red blood cells.
'

9:24 am

angelinaxox

hi hursh

9:24 am

redturtlehead

i had a pt with a very low one last night...

9:24 am

hurshy

ah, thanks sc, it's always silly to be entering a word when you don't really know what it means and it isn't even a word anyway

9:25 am

Scrabbler

And today's hematology lesson was brought to you by Dr Scrabbler, sponsored by iron.

9:25 am

Scrabbler

Why, red?

9:25 am

hurshy

vulcans don't have hemoglobin, because their blood is copper based. they have something else instead.

9:25 am

redturtlehead

AND FOLIC ACID!

9:25 am

Scrabbler

Haha, yes, red.

9:26 am

redturtlehead

oops dog helping me type.

9:26 am

Scrabbler

Really, hursh, copper-based blood?

9:26 am

redturtlehead

just upper gi bleed, but scary for a moment..

9:26 am

hurshy

yep

9:26 am

hurshy

that's why it's green instead of red

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Wasn't there an episode of House with a patient with Wilson's Disease---copper metabloism problem causing psychiatric and liver problems.

9:27 am

redturtlehead

COOL HURSH..

9:27 am

redturtlehead

darn it all.... dog...

9:27 am

Scrabbler

I am not a Trekkie so that is really cool to learn.

9:27 am

hurshy

might be sc, i don't recall offhand

9:27 am

Atalante

aha perfect time to turn up! hurshy smurshy! YAY! and scrabbler! I have a suitably gory question!

9:27 am

redturtlehead

hi ata,

9:27 am

hurshy

hi ata :)

9:28 am

angelinaxox

hi ata

9:28 am

Scrabbler

Blood, guts....tell us.

9:31 am

Atalante

*grins* how does a doctor strip out a major vein surgically? eg the cephalic vein from elbow up to where to joins back into the heart area?

9:31 am

Scrabbler

Where did Atalante go? I hope she is bleeding and now unconscious.

9:31 am

Atalante

LOL was just trying to rack brain for vein names!

9:32 am

hurshy

why would you want to take out a vein?

9:32 am

redturtlehead

THERS GOT to be a video of it on Utube, eh....

9:32 am

Scrabbler

Strip? As in for varicose veins? Sometimes injections are done, or they can insert a wi4, but I am trying to think why THAT vein?

9:32 am

redturtlehead

hursy, sometimes they take a vein out of the leg, and use it for the heart.

9:32 am

Atalante

cos it might end up happening to sister ...

9:32 am

Scrabbler

Your poor sister. What is happening now?

9:33 am

Atalante

because she's got a new non-healing wound at the inside of her elbow, and if the vein gets infected, surgeon says he'll need to strip out the vein

9:33 am

hurshy

can't they do something to make sure the vein DOESN'T get infected?

9:33 am

Scrabbler

Oh, he might tie it off to prevent flow back to her heart. **just thinking**

9:34 am

AnnieOakley

Good afternoon all. Back in the 80s, when I was first in the operating theatres, they snipped the vein at the e.g. top of leg, and at the other end through 2 small cuts...the you pulled it out...I recall it well as one of the first operations I took part in!

9:34 am

kje

would get a second opinion before allowing that ata - we clear infections - major ones - in veins all the time without removing them

9:34 am

redturtlehead

hi annie!!

9:34 am

angelinaxox

hi annie

9:35 am

Scrabbler

Hi AnnieOakley! That's how the saphenous vein is removed from the leg to be used for coronary artery bypasses.

9:35 am

kje

that is a bad idea - would leave her with major swelling problems in the arm

9:35 am

AnnieOakley

hello Red, happy Easter...I wish you many eggs!

9:35 am

Scrabbler

Yes, kje, I thought the same thing.

9:35 am

redturtlehead

i want no more gi bleed surprises thanks...

9:35 am

kje

make sure someone besides a surgeon is in charge - ie: if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail really applies to surgeons - they have a knife

9:36 am

sadie52

hello annie Happy Easter

9:36 am

AnnieOakley

Hello Scrabbler...the one I saw related to simple varicose vein removal...I was amazed how tough it was to pull out and how thick the vein as...stuck well in my memory!

9:36 am

Atalante

am just fascinated about the mechanics of doing it!

9:36 am

AnnieOakley

Hi Sadie, happy Easter and much chocolate to you!

9:36 am

kje

hopefully none of you are surgeons : )

9:37 am

Atalante

the problem, kje, is that she can't ever get rid of infections. once they are there, they stay for a looong time

9:37 am

kje

no offense

9:37 am

hurshy

i think that is why house has a team of a neurologist and a... what's the one that specializes in infections?... and a... gosh what is chase anyway?

9:37 am

Scrabbler

Red--aren't the alcoholic GI bleeders just awful. I still remember one from med school.

9:37 am

Scrabbler

Nope, kje, I am a pediatrician.

9:38 am

bubba218

good morining, everyone

9:38 am

kje

I'm an internist - geriatrics

9:38 am

Scrabbler

What do you do, kje?

9:38 am

angelinaxox

gm bubba

9:38 am

redturtlehead

they are really scary, because they can bleed out like that, i had a pt tech wanting to start the iv's but i will admit, he is so slow, so i just did it...

9:38 am

Scrabbler

And he4 is our orthopod---Bubba!

9:38 am

redturtlehead

hi bubba

9:38 am

hurshy

and a best friend who is an oncologist... all the different perspectives

9:38 am

kje

good for you for doing peds scarlet - no money in that one : )

9:38 am

Scrabbler

Cool, kje! Where did you go to med school?

9:38 am

AnnieOakley

I recall a lady with advaced syphyllis who was also an alcoholic, and her urine smelt of brandy...I was only a nurse, but went into midwifery, becoming a senior sister KJE

9:39 am

redturtlehead

hey now, nothing wrong with nursing.

9:39 am

kje

UT Houston, intern/residency/fellowship in baltimore - now at UT in Dallas

9:39 am

Scrabbler

Yes, overworked and underpaid, bossed around by many mothers, but the kids are fun (most of the time).

9:39 am

AnnieOakley

No, shouldn't say only a nurse...sorry...i'm proud of my background!

9:40 am

kje

love nurses - why won't anyone do it anymore!!! we need more!!!

9:40 am

Scrabbler

Yes, red--you guys do the real work, we just give orders.

9:40 am

redturtlehead

its ok annie, i say it all the time

9:40 am

redturtlehead

kje its because the job is very very difficult.

9:40 am

AnnieOakley

I left it to deal with complaints in our National Health Service!!! Thanks Red

9:41 am

kje

especially good floor nurses - make the difference in whether my patients go home or end up in nursing home

9:41 am

redturtlehead

and the pay, especially in texas, stinks. texas is one of the lowest paying states...

9:41 am

AnnieOakley

In UK, the doctors don't give orders, the nurses do!!!!

9:41 am

Anniebrook

when I was in the hospital last May I had a nurse that was wonderful and gave me moral support and good advice, bless Miss Drake! hello everyone! Happy

9:41 am

Scrabbler

Really, Annie--like ordering meds, tests, etc?

9:41 am

Anniebrook

easter!

9:42 am

Scrabbler

And our other Annie is he4!!

9:42 am

AnnieOakley

If the doctors aren't pulling heir weight, the nurse can go senior, but they don't order tests (though midwives do).

9:42 am

AnnieOakley

If the doctors aren't pulling heir weight, the nurse can go senior, but they don't order tests (though midwives do).

9:42 am

angelinaxox

gm annie, happy easter

9:42 am

AnnieOakley

Hello Annie

9:42 am

kje

bye all - off to meet my team and round

9:42 am

redturtlehead

Our patients tend to have everything done, ordered, etc before the doc sees them, I routinely order x rays, and lab test here scrabbs, but thats typical in the ED don t think it is on the floor.

9:43 am

Scrabbler

Bye kje!

9:43 am

angelinaxox

bye kje, tc and happy easter

9:44 am

AnnieOakley

Ithink the same is here too Red in ED (though we call that A&E) and only senior nurses

9:45 am

redturtlehead

We dont really have a differentiation between senior nurses and other ones...but of course if i am ordering a head ct, the doc should be in there seeing the pt anyway...

9:46 am

Scrabbler

What is A & E?

9:46 am

redturtlehead

i've sort of wanted to do a travel assignment to the uk, but it seems a bit complicated and not profitable...;0

9:46 am

redturtlehead

accident and emergency scrabbs,

9:46 am

Atalante

accident and emergency

9:47 am

AnnieOakley

It's Accident & Emergency...no, don't think profitable at mo...

9:47 am

redturtlehead

the ed in the uk, note not accident, emergency and sore throat.!!

9:47 am

AnnieOakley

Red, you'd be very welcome here...specialist nurses very needed

9:47 am

Scrabbler

Yes, the definition of emergency is relative.

9:48 am

AnnieOakley

Sore throats here too in A&E sadly...

9:48 am

redturtlehead

It would be really interesting, I imagine!!!

9:49 am

AnnieOakley

Major eye opening!!!!!!!

9:49 am

redturtlehead

Meaning: 1. To experience goose flesh, skin-creeping, or bristling hair out of fear. 2. To cause goose flesh, the skin to creep, or the hair to bristle out of fear.

9:56 am

10:05 am

Uniquity

Betty Bater bought some butter but she said this Butter is bitter if i put it in my batter it will make my batter bitter. But a bit of better butter is bound to make my batter better. so she bought a bit of better butter then she put it in her batter and her batter wasn't bitter.

Hi Dorens, Happy Easter

10:07 am

Dorens

Hi .. scrabs, did I tell you yet that Jeremy will be staying at harvard?

10:08 am

Dorens

same to you annie, and all else .. happy easter

10:08 am

MeowKewlit

yeah.. happy easter to all... i almost forgot :D

10:08 am

JBV

good morning, everybody - speaking about childhood, I just colored 6 eggs to keep up an Easter tradition that no one here cares about but me

10:09 am

Dorens

i thought everybody liked coloring eggs, jbv. did you boil them with onion skins?

10:09 am

Scrabbler

No, you didn't tell me but that is great, Doren. I was justtelling one of my med students about your son's book, as we were talking about physician-patient dynamics.

10:09 am

Uniquity

Jbv, my father couldn't find an egg dying kit anywhere in his town...we used food colouring and markers. I was surprised at first, then sad that easter is now ONLY about candy..even the bunny and eggs have been forgotten (I am not into the religious aspect at all)

10:09 am

Scrabbler

Hi JBV

10:10 am

Scrabbler

I went shopping yesterday at about 5 pm--no eggs left to buy!!

10:10 am

tee_jay

i always loved coloring them, too. next year my oldest will be old enough. am looking forward to it.

10:10 am

JBV

well, my son did it with me until last year (he's 24) but he was working last night so we didn't do it together, I did not want to let the tradition just die out

10:10 am

Scrabbler

I am a Tetris freak, Uniquity!

10:11 am

Uniquity

Scrabs, I assumed all babble nuts might be :)

10:11 am

redturtlehead

JBV, thats nice. We used to blow the eggs and then dye them, but we dont really di it anymore, Maybe my sister does.

10:11 am

Dorens

well, his book will be out in paperback in september.. and he was offered a tenure track professor thing.. half at the university in history of science, half at the med school.. social mediciine. he's veryexcited

10:11 am

JBV

dorens, don't know about onion skins, and I found out too late that you're supposed to color the eggs while they're still warm, but they came out fine anyway

10:11 am

Scrabbler

I read that tetris is most popular among women as we like toput things in order neatly.

10:11 am

lori ann

Happy Easter everyone...

10:12 am

tee_jay

i loved tetris in college. wasted many an hour.

10:12 am

Scrabbler

Hi Lori Ann---Happy Easter to you.

10:12 am

wurdygurl

you are supposed to color eggs when they are warm? Why? 40 years and I did not know that

10:12 am

JBV

it's fun with little kiddies - we used to hide them and give him clues to go hunting...

10:12 am

Uniquity

I adore tetris...I use freetetris.com now. Nothing like the original, but decent.

10:12 am

Uniquity

I blow my eggs...they never get warm!

10:12 am

bubba218

Finished this grid!!

10:12 am

Dorens

i liked boiling them with onion skins and they came out a really soft brown/yellow color

10:12 am

Dorens

yay bubba

10:13 am

tee_jay

baby needs attention. bye all!

10:13 am

Scrabbler

One of my nephews gave me his GameBoy years ago when he upgraded to a newer one, and I played tetris for many hours---got 377, 000+ points as my record.

10:13 am

JBV

dorens, congratulations to your son (and to you) for his success

10:13 am

Uniquity

Yay Bubba! Take care tee_jay

10:13 am

Scrabbler

yahooo for Bubba.

10:13 am

Scrabbler

Bye TJ

10:13 am

lori ann

I don't have much time for the grid this morning. I am cooking Easter Lunch for family. I did'nt get much sleep last night so I hope all tastes well!!! LOL

10:13 am

JBV

and scrabbler, I don't play tetris, but I get the same feeling of putting things in order with Taipei -

10:13 am

Scrabbler

Coffee anyone? I finished my first cup.

10:14 am

MeowKewlit

having one :)

10:14 am

Anniebrook

yes, dorens, congrats to your son! You must tell us the name of his book.

10:14 am

MeowKewlit

mine is mocha "D

10:14 am

Uniquity

LOL Scrabbler! That is intense...I have a Super Nintendo emulator and play on that quite often. I was a big fan of Dr. Mario as a child. Similar concept, but a bit more strategic in a way

10:14 am

lori ann

I'll have one Scrabbs!!! Maybe I better have a double.

10:14 am

JBV

wurdy, the suggestion for warm eggs was printed on the back of the coloring kit

10:15 am

Scrabbler

He4 is the coffee---> hot, hot.

10:15 am

Anniebrook

*holds out cup for more coffee*

10:16 am

Uniquity

Hot chocolate? Mm, I am going to go make some!

10:17 am

Scrabbler

Doren, I will look up his book again.

10:17 am

lori ann

My grandaughter had a high temperature last evening, we were going to take her to the E.R. but tylenol brought it down to about 101. We did'nt get to sleep until about 4:oo am! I think I need more than a cup of coffee!! LOL

10:17 am

redturtlehead

Yay Lori!

10:17 am

redturtlehead

Appropriate management of fever!!!

10:17 am

Scrabbler

Fever is our friend--it just means the immune system is working.

10:18 am

redturtlehead

How is she today??

10:18 am

Scrabbler

Haha, and the turtle pokes her head out again.

10:18 am

redturtlehead

I have been in the grid and thinking about sleep, and being preturbed by the dogs desirable behavior.

10:19 am

lori ann

It does scare me when it get high though scrabbs. She is still running a low grade fever red, thanks for asking.

10:19 am

Scrabbler

I am finding this grid to be tough.

10:19 am

Scrabbler

A higher fever is no worse than lower--what matters is the big picture, what the other symptoms are, and how the child is behaving. A child could be very ill and have no fever at all.

10:20 am

phaeton

Happy Easter! ...How many words today?

10:20 am

lori ann

Me too Scrabbs...But I would probably find any grid tough today!!!

10:20 am

redturtlehead

167 phae

10:20 am

Scrabbler

Some viruses, such as Roseola, cause "high" fevers.

10:20 am

Scrabbler

Hi phaeton

10:20 am

Dorens

just broke my espresso machine... not happy about that. and yes, i find it kinda tough too scrab

10:20 am

o-o

many hotheads have no fever

10:20 am

redturtlehead

But sudden high fevers can cause febrile seizures in kids prone to that sort of thing.

10:21 am

phaeton

hello scrabbler

10:21 am

phaeton

thank you red

10:21 am

redturtlehead

LOL BR!

10:21 am

Scrabbler

Most febrile seizures occur before the parents were even aware of their kid having a fever.

10:21 am

Scrabbler

true, BR.

10:21 am

lori ann

She does have a runny nose and is cutting teeth Scrabbs, so I think it is a combo. She also has a little bit of wheezing.

10:22 am

Scrabbler

Aw, Doren...now what?

10:22 am

redturtlehead

Yes, because they are sudden.

10:22 am

Scrabbler

Ah, she probably has bronchiolitis---a "chest cold".

10:22 am

JBV

we almost have febrile in the grid today - how about febrin?

10:22 am

redturtlehead

I mean the temp goes up suddenly. of course seizures are usual;ly sort of sudden and unexpected.

10:22 am

lori ann

What is a febrile seizure???? Now I'm in a PANIC!!!

10:22 am

Scrabbler

Yes, and scary for parents to witness.

10:23 am

carra

hello everyone! waiting for my cannoli mixture to be done ..Happy Easter! and to those that dotn celebrate Happy Sunday !

10:23 am

Scrabbler

No, do NOT panic Lori Ann!

10:23 am

Scrabbler

Hi Carra

10:23 am

redturtlehead

Lori, no worries. You are watching her fever too carefully for that I believe.

10:23 am

lori ann

Hi carra...

10:23 am

10:25 am

carra

10:25 am

JFB

My son had on at 2 years but only because he had a urine infection - absolutely fine afterwards. Took us about a month to get over it though

10:25 am

lori ann

I will Scrabbs, thank you all so much for your advise and your ears to listen to me~~ She is playing with her pop pop now so I think she's feeling better.

10:25 am

Scrabbler

If she is smiling and drinking then she is doing just fine, LoriAnn.

10:26 am

Scrabbler

JFB--it is unusual for boys to have urinary infections.

10:27 am

lori ann

I am going to go finish getting lunch prepared. I may be back later today after a full belly and a nap!!! Have a great day everyone. And thank you again for being such great friends!!

10:27 am

JFB

This one has always been awkward!!

10:28 am

Scrabbler

Bye, Lori Ann--enjoy your Easter meal.

10:28 am

redturtlehead

Ok I am fading, joining pooch for nap, Happy Easter to all who celebrate!!!!

10:28 am

Uniquity

What would we do without our resident doctors and nurses...I love reading the consolation and straightforward information Scrabbler, RedT and others tend to provide.

10:28 am

Scrabbler

And I need breakfast--bye all.

10:28 am

Scrabbler

It is just factual info to stomp out myths and fears, Uniquity.

10:29 am

Scrabbler

Enjoy your nap, red.

10:29 am

phaeton

10:29 am

Uniquity

Enjoy your sleep Red, and your breakfast Scrabs. Have a good day!

Scrabbler

I have to decide on what to have for breakfast....yogurt, cereal...?

10:30 am

phaeton

10:30 am

JBV

10:31 am

JBV

Vicuna

Wow! Never a dull moment with you, then!

Scrabbler

Back to find some more. Hi all.

1:32 pm

FMitch

Hello Scrabbler

1:32 pm

hurshy

there have been lots of dull moments. just not this week.

1:33 pm

MLFAN17

60 to find i think FM

1:33 pm

NonnieLight

real similar to the second er4/4, but ends in a vowel

1:33 pm

Vicuna

What are you going to do in New Haven? There should be no shortage of interesting opportunities there, at least.

1:33 pm

NonnieLight

hello scrabbs!

1:33 pm

Lindrickway

hi scrabs wb

1:33 pm

hurshy

well i have not yet lined up a job yet. i've just put out some feelers.

1:33 pm

hurshy

oops, redundant.

1:33 pm

Vicuna

Yes, well, there are a lot of moments, after all. I guess the majority of them are bound to be dull.

1:35 pm

hurshy

two of our former students have been in march madness, but gilbert is out now, he plays for pitt. but jack is playing right now, for Miami.

1:36 pm

FMitch

Vi, lovely painted egg in your icon, one of yours or a web image?

1:36 pm

o-o

madness is year around

1:36 pm

Scrabbler

I have been watching basketball since Thursday--I get hooked at this time of year, thus the term, "March Madness".

1:36 pm

MLFAN17

not finding it for soem reason

1:36 pm

Vicuna

Mine, FM! My most successful effort from this year.

1:36 pm

Lindrickway

hi babble

1:36 pm

hurshy

not in NCAA basketball, brabble :)

1:36 pm

Scrabbler

True, BR, madness abounds.

1:36 pm

yeperek

oh man the whole lickety page eased everything in an instant ^^;

1:37 pm

FMitch

It's beautiful Vi, well done :)

1:37 pm

Jindigo

Thanks Nonnie - im going to do that. I hate going back forth between to screens - although I have firefox - I also have IE.

1:37 pm

Lindrickway

babble i keep thinking your icon is a pint of guinness!!

1:37 pm

o-o

madness in babble too

1:37 pm

FMitch

LOL lind I just thought the same thing and had to look closer!

1:37 pm

MLFAN17

Jind do you have this game in your fav places?

1:37 pm

Lindrickway

LOL FM!!

1:37 pm

FMitch

Ata woooo?

1:37 pm

Lindrickway

mmmm guinness!!

1:38 pm

NonnieLight

ml, it is a sea eagle and it sounds like "to make money"

1:38 pm

Atalante

quoi? moi?

1:38 pm

Vicuna

Thanks, FM. It's fun. But now I've put away the supplies for another year.

1:38 pm

MLFAN17

1:38 pm

FMitch

Oui tu! was just seeing if you were still there. IM?

1:39 pm

Jindigo

Vic - that eggs is gorgous!

1:40 pm

Atalante

oui! je suis ici! et je suis lÃ sur IM aussi!

1:40 pm

NonnieLight

That was the same for me, Jindigo. I usually can't complete the grid without the clues so it makes life a whole lot less complicated just to have everything on one screen. Yep, if you like the clues you too might like "babble expert".

1:40 pm

Jindigo

MLF - my fav places?

1:40 pm

Vicuna

Thanks, Jindigo. The colors of the dyes are just so rich.

1:41 pm

NonnieLight

perhaps you're missing the last er4/4, ml and that would be a mistake(s) ;o)

1:41 pm

Jindigo

MLFAN - i just saw your question - was disctracted by hubby returning with chocolate and pie - had to stop.

1:41 pm

MLFAN17

Jind when i installed the expert i have to look up the game its in a folder on my puter somewhere and not with my other links i go to but the original babble is

1:41 pm

o-o

Just how do dyes amass a fortune?

1:42 pm

Vicuna

Because they can take it with them, i guess, BabRab.

1:42 pm

4:49 pm

tygerbryght

in some of my word searching today, I came across the word, "schreck". I recognized the (probable, at that point) relationship to our favorite green movie star, so I followed it up. It means "fright"! is there anybody on right now who knows yiddish? I've a feeling it's the same there

4:50 pm

DR1965

I know some yiddish Tyger.. and I would agree but I am not certain

4:51 pm

tygerbryght

the alteration is pretty obvious - Murkans get freaked if there are too may letters :P - and I think the meaning is funny. and meant to be, of course; an inside joke, so to speak

4:51 pm

Michnick

schrek means something really awful, could be frightening

4:51 pm

Lindrickway

back again

4:52 pm

DR1965

wb Lind

4:52 pm

Lindrickway

ty dr

4:52 pm

Michnick

There are a lot of yiddishisms in the movies as inside jokes. There used to be a lot more, the younger generations don't really speak it, they just know a few words.

4:52 pm

DR1965

My Dog is an inside joke.. his name is schmutz

4:52 pm

Michnick

I mean those in the movies. There are still a lot of communities where Yiddish is the vernacular.

4:53 pm

tygerbryght

thx, mich. I thought I recalled a longer word, and managed to work it out (schrecklichkeit). it has an interesting history to English speakers back during World War I. I'm putting all this up in the thread on Angelsong's site about real words not in Enable - this as a sidenote, of course

4:53 pm

DR1965

My grandmother was from Hungary and spoke hungarian and Yiddish along with english

4:53 pm

Michnick

I hope your dog doesn't understand Yiddish, dr

4:54 pm

tygerbryght

doesn't schmutz mean dirty or sooty?

4:54 pm

DR1965

LOL Mich- No he doesn't. We just thought itwas the perfect name for a schnauzer who likes being dirty

4:54 pm

tygerbryght

or something worse??

4:54 pm

Michnick

Tyger, the longer ending ***ichkeit, makes the word into a noun. i.e. Yiddish actually means Jewish whereas Yiddishkeit is Judaism (or its study).

4:55 pm

tygerbryght

for a schnauzer - luv it

4:55 pm

Michnick

No, schmutz is just dirty

4:55 pm

Lindrickway

LOL dr

4:56 pm

tygerbryght

a friend named a kitten that. they found her under the hood of the car (winter in Michigan), and she was all greasy & dirty from trying to get warm (just a kitten), and was hurt when they started the car (didn't know she was there until she howled)

4:56 pm

DR1965

Poor Kitty!

4:56 pm

Lindrickway

aaawww

4:57 pm

tygerbryght

my baby is a jack russell called 'Harry"

4:57 pm

tygerbryght

they finally had to put her to sleep when she was about 7

4:57 pm

Michnick

Cute. My greatgrandmother used to call my mom "Meeskeit" which she loved until she learned it meant "ugliness". My greatgrandma was just afraid of the Evil Eye.

4:58 pm

tygerbryght

there was a tremendous amount of that in Europe not that long ago, wasn't there, mich?

4:58 pm

Scrabbler

My mother is on the phone--chattering away.

4:58 pm

Oh that's great, mind you I've probably had enough w*** which is why I ended up in the PB in the first place!!

5:03 pm

tygerbryght

5:03 pm

Lindrickway

LOL

5:03 pm

5:04 pm

KatieMcG

Oh Scrabbler I'm sorry, I will include him in my prayers

5:04 pm

I am sorry to hear that Scrabs. We will pray for his family too

5:05 pm

Lindrickway

oooh scrabs that is the day i was told i didn't have cancer! good news to one bad news to another

5:05 pm

kje

so much for HIPAA : )

5:05 pm

Scrabbler

It is terribly sad and unfair, especially as when he was 5 his mother died during childbirth with the 3rd child.

5:05 pm

DR1965

I hate HIPAA sometimes KJE

5:05 pm

Lindrickway

aaawww

5:05 pm

That is AWFUL SCrabs

5:05 pm

kje-have I provided too many details?

5:06 pm

I shouldn't have started talking about chocolate. Now I'm having trouble keeping my mind off the (remainder of the) bag of Lindor dark choc truffles

5:06 pm

KatieMcG

Oh no, some people just have too much to bare

5:06 pm

kje

I was teasing you scarb

5:06 pm

tygerbryght

scrabs, you aren't giving us IDs - that's what counts, I think

5:06 pm

kthdsn

what's HIPAA

5:06 pm

kje

or scrab

5:06 pm

Scrabbler

Phew, kje, I didn't want to be busted. Federal crime.

5:06 pm

5:07 pm

Scrabbler

kje, you are making me paranoid.

5:07 pm

KatieMcG

And as we are all over the world we would never know, sometimes you need to be able to share with people who will never know the individuals

5:08 pm

DR1965

don't be scrabs.. you did not violate Hipaa

5:08 pm

kje

Health Information Privacy Accountability Act

5:08 pm

tygerbryght

and your ID is also not on the site, scrabs - it's a double blind situation (not to get academic or anything) :)

5:09 pm

DR1965

KJE- are you in th emedical profession?

5:09 pm

kje

yes

5:09 pm

pam

Scrabs, I will add ben and his family to the list of people I send white light to....

5:09 pm

tygerbryght

kje covers the opposite end of the spectrum, scrabs :D

5:09 pm

DR1965

AH.. that makes sense then because people do not usually know all th erules of HIPAA

5:09 pm

Scrabbler

Anyway, when Ben was diagnosed I was very upset, especially after the discussion in which I broke the news.

5:09 pm

DR1965

I work for a health insurer

5:09 pm

kje

wrong - Health Information Portability and Accountability Act

5:10 pm

pam

Will he qualify for treatment? Surgery?

5:10 pm

kje

I couldn't remember where the portable part went

5:10 pm

Scrabbler

He will start chemo soon.

5:10 pm

Scrabbler

Is fe6 related to the fe5 before it?

5:10 pm

tygerbryght

scrabs, you were very upset when you found out, several days before you told the family - and I think it's perfectly reasonable - and the kind of reaction I'd want my doctor to have!

5:10 pm

kje

no

5:11 pm

tygerbryght

yes, scrabs, 1st 4 letters

5:11 pm

pam

Oh, good.... I hope the chemo is effective. Will he keep his limb? I think of RFK, Jr and a whole lot of others...

5:11 pm

KatieMcG

me too tyger, I think caring counts for more than privacy, especially when it hasn't been violated anyway

5:11 pm

kje

different word Scrab, though first 4 letters the same

5:11 pm

Scrabbler

Pediatrics and geriatrics have many similarities, just as pediatrics is similar to veterinary medicine. My vets and I share stories about young animals and trying to examine them.

a place called the oriental house which has better lunch & dinner

8:40 pm

ardilla

8:41 pm

lbdawger

8:41 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

or once i ordered mac and cheese and they sent me a plate of the shittiest looking pasta i've ever seen, and the waitron said they tried to get as much cheese off of it they could, cuz someone in the kitchen thought i "don't like cheese"

8:41 pm

ardilla

lol

8:42 pm

lbdawger

what? why in the world would you order mac and cheese if you didn't like cheese? doh!

8:42 pm

ardilla

the bad thing is this place is americanized; it's on an air force base

8:42 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

dawg, yes, you see my point.

8:43 pm

8:49 pm

pam

oh, ardilla... I

8:49 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

my plan when entering a new restaurant is 1) ignore all adjectives on the menu, because they are not put there by the cook staff, and 2) tell 'em how you want your food, very precisely, and tip well if they come even close
